Chapter 215 Stars Give Money to Fans
This name makes the barrage scroll faster.
Zhao Tingzhou is not only a top-tier traffic star, but also a star who was caught and brought back on the spot when he was about to go abroad before the broadcast of "It's Your Turn".
There were many netizens in the live broadcast room waiting for him to fail.
Finally, it's Zhao Tingzhou's turn. I thought he was saved by his financial backer and was safe. I wonder how he'll get away with it this time.
[Zhao Tingzhou had previously been on the run, so it's certain he'll be incarcerated, right?]
[It's definitely going to happen. Those people in the entertainment industry are so perceptive. After Zhao Tingzhou was arrested by officials at the airport, all his endorsements were lost. The resources he had secured were snatched up by other young actors. He also stopped public activities. He's now a completely risky artist. Even the company is afraid to accept him for announcements.]
[Isn't it said that Zhao Tingzhou rose from grassroots to the top? How could he not cherish the opportunity and ruin his bright future in vain?]
[Maybe I was fascinated by the glamorous life of being a star and did something wrong?]
[No matter what he did, there are plenty of celebrities. One more or one less wouldn't make a difference. If Zhao Tingzhou had committed a crime, he would have been in jail long ago. He should have stopped pretending to be a decent person and exploiting his fans.]
[I'm curious what Zhao Tingzhou might have done wrong? Is it the same tax evasion that many celebrities do?]
[Male celebrities can also become ladybugs, have fans choose concubines, and attract fans.]
[It's possible that fans are choosing a concubine. I've seen paparazzi reports that Zhao Tingzhou is very close to his fans. Although fans always say that their idols are just friends with them, anyone in the fan circle should know that this is all private contact with fans.]
Zhao Tingzhou's fans hurried to the live broadcast room after hearing that their idol would be investigated in this episode. Seeing the barrage of speculations, they were angry and anxious.
But big fans asked them to keep calm, not to say too much, and not to control the comments in the live broadcast room, so as not to make netizens think that they were quibbling and were fully automatic whitewashing machines. They could only hold back and wait nervously for their idol to appear, pass the inspection, and clear up these black spots.
In the camera, after Jiang Ning introduced Zhao Tingzhou's basic information to netizens, Zhao Tingzhou was taken to the recording hall by the official.
Zhao Tingzhou is a handsome man with a somewhat world-weary look, and he has a pair of peach blossom eyes, which makes people feel that he is jumping back and forth between indifference and affection.
"Hello, Mr. Zhao. What do you want to say? Or do you want to start the investigation now?"
"I don't have anything to say. Just go ahead and investigate. The sooner you finish, the sooner I can go back." Zhao Tingzhou put his hands in his pockets.
The cool and arrogant tone of his voice made his haters criticize him continuously in the live broadcast room.
Of course, this attitude also makes ordinary netizens feel uncomfortable.
What is Zhao Tingzhou doing? Is he just throwing in the towel?
[I know I can't escape, but why pretend? I'm going back. It's better to go in and work on the sewing machine.]
[Look at his desperate look. It's hopeless. Another one has been taken away. Who knows who will be investigated next.]
Amidst the reassurances in the comments, Jiang Ning felt differently.
She glanced at Zhao Tingzhou, whose eyes were still obviously bloodshot and had a dark patch under his eyes.
There was no sign of him waiting to die, more like the calm before social death.
The examination of Zhao Tingzhou is subtly different from that of Yan Peng.
The focus is on tax audits, urine tests, yin-yang contracts, and some ladybug records.
After all these were thoroughly investigated, contrary to netizens' expectations, Zhao Tingzhou had no criminal behavior. He even opened a hotel with his assistant or the crew, and his taxes were also very clear. Since Zhao Tingzhou entered the entertainment industry, there has not been a single year in which he failed to pay taxes according to regulations.
It was much cleaner than what some ordinary people found out. Not only did it surprise the black fans who were sure that he would go to jail, but even passers-by didn't believe it.
I don't understand. If he didn't break the law, why would Zhao Tingzhou run away? Is he just acting out of his desire to make fun of us?
[I don't believe Zhao Tingzhou didn't commit any crime. He even fled because he was afraid of being punished. How could he be truly innocent?]
[Yeah, don't say he was just going abroad for fun. If he was just going there for fun, why would the authorities bring him back?]
If Zhao Tingzhou is confirmed guilty, then the program that examined him without any problems will be in serious trouble. I was just recommending this fair program to my friends, but now I'm really disappointed.
[I'm saying the financial backers behind Zhao Tingzhou are powerful. They've bought both the show and Jiang Ning. That kind of power makes the Chinese entertainment industry tremble. I won't be surprised by any resources he gets in the future.]
[Yeah, isn't Jiang Ning the one who loves to eat melons? Why didn't she eat Zhao Tingzhou's melons this time?]
Jiang Ning deliberately left the suspense to the end. When the investigation results came out and Zhao Tingzhou breathed a sigh of relief and was about to slip away, Jiang Ning activated the melon-eating system and started to eat Zhao Tingzhou's melon.
I was wondering why the authorities added Zhao Tingzhou to the investigation list. It turns out he holds a monthly gathering with fans, often at a karaoke bar. Whenever fans come out, he's always vague and unsure of who he is or where he is. The authorities assumed he was attracting fans, and that Zhao Tingzhou was the one who lured them into gatherings.
Zhao Tingzhou: “!!”
Isn't it over? Why are you still chewing his melon?
Zhao Tingzhou's body, which had just relaxed, tensed up again, his feet still moving, causing black fans to attack him in the barrage, saying that he was trying to escape.
[But Zhao Tingzhou really wasn't gathering people to do that, it was...]
Before Jiang Ning could finish, Zhao Tingzhou suddenly interrupted.
"Teacher Jiang!"
Jiang Ning looked over and silently asked him what he wanted to say.
"I want to ask if my investigation is over and I can go back now?" Zhao Tingzhou said calmly.
"Of course, Mr. Zhao can leave at any time." Jiang Ning added in his heart.
But I won't stop eating melons. Eating melons is something that should be done from beginning to end.
Zhao Tingzhou was silent.
Now he has two choices: one is to wait for death in front of the camera, the other is to leave, leave immediately, and let him wait for death secretly in a corner.
Seeing that Zhao Tingzhou had not left yet, Jiang Ning asked before looking at the melon-eating system.
"Mr. Zhao is not going to leave?"
"I just thought that after the investigation is completed, I can designate the next person to be investigated." As Zhao Tingzhou said this, his expression gradually became serious, and he really stayed in front of the camera waiting to die.
Jiang Ning respected his decision and continued to eat melons.
[Just now I saw that Zhao Junzhou didn't gather people to make ladybugs, nor did he attract fans. He was simply giving fans money to operate the fan circle. That's right, idols give fans money to support, make merchandise, and buy endorsements. It sounds outrageous, but it's true!]
This mood confused the netizens in the live broadcast, and the black fans even said with certainty that Jiang Ning was bribed by Zhao Tingzhou's financial sponsor and said that they were talking nonsense.
[Uh, I’m a huge fan of Jiang Ning, and I really want to believe her, but isn’t it a bit outrageous for a celebrity to give fans money as event funds?]
[This is not only outrageous, it's rubbing our IQ into the ground, okay?]
This time, I really don't dare to follow Jiang Ning's lead. How can a celebrity give money to their fans? Those celebrities just wish their fans were all second-generation rich, like they're the ones who profit from countless harvests, okay? And they're even giving money to their fans. It's the kind of thing that even novels wouldn't dare write about.
